Facelift…

So this blog has needed a facelift for a long time. No, really.

I’ve been working on other projects (like getting my good friends and mentors… Tim and Julie Harris into the web 2.0 space.  I used the same BASE theme here as there, and here I’m going to change the look even more shortly. 

I’ve got the plan for facelifitng this thing, and I hope to improve it and not do what happened to the poor dude to the left of me. 

In the process, Issac Kelly at Servee has graciously taught me a ton about CSS, how I can use it, and the general rules of the “div” tag.  It won’t be perfect, but I walk unafraid.  (I can also give Issac my unabashed recommendation for ANY web work that you want.)

But, I’ve got something to give to loan officers.  And I’ve got something to add to all of us that work from home, or work in a lone wolf solo kind of way.  But–the thing is–visual stuff matters.  If it was just content, then this would be the only theme to use.  (And I’ve used it in an experiment, here)

I’ve got to ensure that this site doesn’t distract from what I can contribute.  That means that this place has to be quality, and then Tendayteam.com.  So it will be.  Since I’ve taken on more actual work than in any time in my life–trying to do 1mm/month in loans while branching out–I’ve learned a lot about getting things done.

One thing that has helped me is hiding my task bar in Windows, and going full screen with everything.  Especially in word.

Another thing is the use of instant boss.

I recommend trying that very much. 

Anyway, GenuineChris.COM will be face lifted today.

tendayteam.com will have its tweaks done tomorrow–but do check out tendateam.com/testimonials. 

In the Immortal words of Roots, I shall…proceed…and continue to rock the mike.

By the way, if anyone has some photoshop skills and can make a few low impact illustrations for this space, leave me a comment!
